"Tsunade-Sama

"Tsunade-Sama!!" Daemon bellowed before barreling through the ex-Hokage's door, Estella in tow.

"Hmp." She grinned at the sight of the Uzamaki boy. "It's amazing how much you're like your father, Daemon, just as brash and loud."

"Never mind all that!" Daemon snorted at his superior "we've got a damned serious situation on our hands!"

"I'm well aware of the situation, Daemon." Tsuande retorted her voice calm and cool "and were working on it." Tsuande watched Daemon's expression harden against her words.

"So that's it then, Sensei? That's the only explanation I get to my father's disappearance?!"

"Let me assure you, Daemon that we're doing everything in our power to locate your father and the Uchiha's. But as it stands the village is at risk of being attacked, we must prepare for all situations Daemon. I can't deploy all of my best Shinobi and black ops and leave the rest of the village defenseless."

"Then send us!" Estella cried, her posture almost threatening.

"Absolutely not!" Tsuande responded, her voice more harsh than the two young Shinobi were used to. "If the enemy was skilled enough to capture your father, Daemon then there's not doubt in my mind that they could take you both out with ease."

"YOU KNOW IT'S MADARA!" Estella's words escaped her before she could correct them and her eyes grew wide with fear at the realization of what she had let slip from her lips.

Deamon looked at her questionably "Madara..?"

"It's nothing, Daemon." Tsuande intervened, her amber eyes chalice at the young Uchiha girl. "Daemon…if I may have a word with Estella alone, please."

"If it's anything concerning my father then-"

"The situation is not up for debate, Uzamaki. Please leave the room." Tsuande's eyes shooting a serious glare matched with her bitter tone. Daemon's only protest being that of a stern expression before he turned to leave against his will. Tsuande watched the young Uzamaki boy leave the room, her gaze shifting to the raven haired vixen that stood before her.

"I'm surprised Estella, that you would let that name fall from you lips like the brick that it did." Tsuande laced her fingers and placed them upon her mouth, a twinge of a smirk curling in to the corners of her mouth.

"My apologizes, Sensei." Estella responded with a halfway bow.

"You really think its Madara…don't you..?" Tsuande responded her voice distant and her expression detached from the present day.

"I do, Sensei. I know the books say he died many years ago at my fathers hands…but-"

"He died once before…" Tsuande interrupted, her gaze shifting to the young girl who merely nodded in response.

"If that's the case…you know better than I, Sensei that I'm the only one who can stop him..." Estella watched her teachers face harden and her hands curl till her knuckles turned white.

"You're no where near your fathers level, Estella…don't be so cocky."

"What if Kakashi and Shikamaru-Sama joined us?" Estella responded, a twinge of hope sparking in her jade eyes.

"I…" Tsuande's sentence trailed along with her thoughts before she sat back in her chair, running her polished fingers through her golden hair. "I'm at the end of my rope, Estella…I'd never be able to live with myself if you and Daemon…"

"Not an option. We won't give them the chance, Sensei." Estella responded, her voice over zealous for added reassurance.

"Then I have no choice, you, Daemon, Shikimaru and Kakashi will mobilize first thing tomorrow morning. I will take Daisuke into my care in your absence. Relay this information to Daemon…" Tsuande's expression was gentle, yet first and Estella accepted her orders with so much internal enthusiasm she feared that she might burst. Her stomach lurched with anticipation and fear and she quickly left the office of the ex-hokage turned Sensei, nearly smacking Daemon with the door in her hasty exit.

"What happened?" Daemon questioned his comrade; his eyes seemingly blank eyes cloudy with discontent.

"We mobilize first thing in the morning with Kakashi and Shikamaru." Estella happily reported, pieces of her charcoal hair falling from its tie to frame her face.

OoOoOoOoOoO

AN: I figured I would update twice this week to make up for my lack of updates earlier on. Lol. Well…I know I answered one question and that was who the hell was their Sensei. I figured Tsuande would be the best candidate to train the "next generation" seeing as how she's the last remaining Sanin, I figured she'd be the only one who could really handle Sasuke and Naruto's children aside from Kakashi. But lets face…Kakashi was the obvious answer. Lol. I hope you all enjoy this story thus far. Please Review : - )
